With accelerating developments in technology and AI, capital efficiency and humanity will be increasingly at odds. We need to bring capitalism into the 21st century and make our own well-being the goals of the economy.

Just because you call it capitalism, does not make it capitalism. Be honest with people. You are a socialist, if not a full fledged communist.
@jlcrawf It's important to have dialog.
I'm not looking to abolish the free market, or take away people's rights to private property.
Value added tax and UBI are NOT socialist. It's human facing capitalism. FD means saving capitalist societies from themselves.

I agree with you that VAT is not socialist. Many conservatives have proposed VAT's to replace income tax. Unfortunately, you are not trying to replace a tax, you are adding yet another burdensome tax on people.
UBI is the epitome of socialism or more specifically communism. You are taking money from the population and redistributing it. Exactly what is your definition of socialism if UBI does not fit?
